<p style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, Helvetica, Arial;"><img src="http://budget4allmass.org/sites/default/files/PullThePorkPig.jpg" align="right" hspace="10" width="363" height="311" alt="">Across the country, grassroots activists are standing up to make their priorities loud and clear. The middle class is the backbone of America, and it’s time Congress listened to us, not Pentagon CEOs. As a decade of war comes to a close, it’s time to transfer wasteful Pentagon spending into programs that benefit all Americans.</p>
<p style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, Helvetica, Arial;">The people of Massachusetts voted for the Budget for All in all 91 cities and towns where it was on the ballot. They said Congress should stop cuts to vital programs, create jobs, tax the 1% and corporations, bring the troops home and cut Pentagon pork. It’s time for Congress to follow the mandate of Massachusetts voters!</p>

<ul>
<li>Nearly one in five of our federal budget dollars are going to the Pentagon — that’s roughly $660 billion a year and more than what the next 19 countries spend combined.</li>
<li>We can reduce the bloated Pentagon budget by $100 billion a year without harming our national security or our troops.</li>
<li>We start by ending corporate welfare for Pentagon contractors and their CEOs.</li>
